My Personality: Golden Retriever

My wife and I love dogs, especially when we can take them on fun little adventures. I have a lot of energy, so I can keep up with your dog no matter how hyper they are. Trust me. I am currently a full time dad. That means that I'm home a lot of the day. We live in a two-bedroom apartment, but we have plenty of room for playing. And, when it gets too boring being cooped up inside, we have a dog park at our complex where dogs love to run around. One last thing about me: I will do everything I can to help a dog in need. A couple of years ago, my wife and I were hiking in Alta, Wyoming. At the top of the Devil's Staircase hike, we found a dog roaming around unattended. We befriended Maverick (his name was on his collar) so that he was comfortable enough to follow us back down the mountain. We hiked three miles to the parking lot with him to find his owner. When we got to the parking lot, we were able to reunite Maverick with his very distraught family. We have a two-bedroom apartment, so I would keep dogs in the main living area. There is plenty of space for a crate if needed.

This is the second time Nicholas has watched Ollie and he's great! Ollie has a great time with him and his family! He is extremely nice and flexible, plus gives very frequent updates and photos which is really appreciated! I highly recommend!

I did a last minute booking with Nicholas, and it was great! He was extremely flexible with my schedule which was really appreciated. He provided me with pictures and updates. My baby looked very happy and he was well taken care of!! I highly recommend Nicholas and will use him again in the future!

I can’t say enough great things about Nicholas. From the very first meet-and-greet, it was clear how much care and attention they give to pets. My dog, Thunder immediately felt comfortable with him. He was incredibly reliable and gave me regular updates with photos and notes, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I could tell my pup was happy, and well cared for. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and dependable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking again!

Nick was great with Ralph from the moment they met. He’s a genuine dog lover. I was totally confident leaving my dog with him while I was away. Would highly recommend.

Pets

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks and hikes. We have a small park near our apartment that is perfect for games like fetch. I also enjoy bringing dogs to the dog park in town. While we are indoors, I like to give dogs some playtime, either with their toys or by petting them to show affection.

I would love to know if the dog needs any special treatment that I could abide by to have their stay in my apartment as easy going as possible.
